"@LanaDelRey the death of young musicians isn't something to romanticize," said Frances Bean.

"LanaDelRey I'll never know my father because he died young & it becomes a desirable feat because ppl like u think it's 'cool'.

"Well, it's f**king not. Embrace life, because u only get one life. The ppl u mentioned wasted that life.Don't be 1 of those ppl."

I'm not attacking anyone. I have no animosity towards Lana, I was just trying to put things in perspective from personal experience.

After being criticised by a Del Rey fan, Frances Bean replied: "I told her to not waste her life. How is that attacking. I literally said embrace this life because u only get1.. ur too talented to waste it away."

She added: "I'm not attacking anyone. I have no animosity towards Lana, I was just trying to put things in perspective from personal experience."
